Good morning y'all!
Enjoy your Friday.
Question about validation. In any type of relationship, friendship/romance/work/etc, what do you need to feel validated? Would be interesting to hear your interpretation of what it means to be validated!
youtube channels who put messed up stuff on the thumbnail for clicks can go run a marathon on legos
tech bros on twitter arguing against libraries in favour of "spotify for books" because authors/publishers (or rather VC investors) can't use libraries as their primary source of profit is just a perfect example of silicon valley's willful ignorance or complete contempt for the ideas of public service and the commons.
rather than everybody creating a public space and sharing resources they'd have us all completely separated and paying countless times over for the same thing.
Would it be okay if I asked for boosts?
I'm an audiobook narrator on ACX and Findaway looking to build my list. I particularly love narrating books with science fiction and fantasy elements.
If you're an author looking to commission audio versions of your short stories or novels (on ACX, Youtube, or elsewhere!) I'd really really love to hear from you. I adore this work and would like to do more!

PSA: Talking about your feelings and asking for things you want can lead to happy results like having your feelings validated or returned and your needs met.
It's scary and doesn't always work, but it can be worth a try.
I want to be with him in every way it's possible. I wish I could show him how much he means to me. But I'm not sure he would listen to me now. I feel like everything just fell down a pithole and I can't breathe. I just laid in bed crying my heart out cause I felt his desperation and I couldn't be there, I couldn't comfort him. I was 900 kilometers away feeling his sadness in my bones and my heart ached. For him. For us. If he doesn't want to be a part of my life anymore, I'm not sure I can cope.
Been feeling both hyper and down in the dumps. When I feel like this, I always stop to ponder why. This time It's connected to someone I love very much, who might be the love of my life. I miss him terribly. I want nothing more than to be with him, to hold him, to kiss and comfort him. But I live 900 kilometers from him. And us being apart - it is tearing us apart. When we're togheter, everything just feels right. He feels like the home I've saught after my whole life.
What I sometimes don't like about myself: (this is sorta #ADD related). I overthink stuff. I overthink to the point of I can't sleep because my head keeps spinning. The #Attentin (the #add-drug/medicine I'm using) keeps those under check. They make me realise that I have night-monsters that daylight (usually) will chase away.
FYI:
“In case anyone is wondering, you would have to move towards the access point at roughly 621.5 kilometers per second in order to doppler-shift Wi-Fi channel 1 into channel 2.”
You can't go from "That's not a problem if you don't look up" to "Rebellions are built on hope" by accident is all I'm tryna say.
I'm gonna make "Anaheim girl" a euphemism for lesbian, I fucking swear.
So now, that I don't have to be the "adult" (whatever that means/connotates) they're having kids in kindergarten, mortages, and responsibilities, while I am free to start over/figure out new stuff that I didn't get to do when I was "supposed" to do it. And yet ; this eerie feeling of not being "adult" the "right way". So what is "the right way"..?
Sometimes I wonder why I feel like a child/teenager/immature adult around people my age.
I have a 20 year old daughter, I went to college for six years, I've been working since I turned 30. I guess I was the adult when they were still figuring out stuff?
Geez Louise. My #moodswings are fucking killing me. Tomorrow I need to get back to my #addmeds before I fall into that effing pithole again.
I love @Linuxtjej:s teeth because they make her smile and laugh so wondeful I can't help but feeling a rush of joy when I look at that picture when I finally caught her smile; and I love her wild hair that is all over the place and all over me when we… hug. ❤️

(Just a ridiculous statement to the world. Over and out.)
The score for the THX “Deep Note” sound, made public for the first time after 35 years:
My energy-level just went from 10 to zero in two seconds flat. It's actually kinda scary how apparent it becomes that I get so tired I can barely keep my head up.
